Sounds like you have pretty much covered the basics on fuel and air end of the equation (although I would double-check that you really have no vacuum leaks in the system). I would proceed by checking your spark. Hook up a timing light and turn the engine over with the starter. There should be a nice regular spark at the main distributor lead and at each plug wire. If it is erratic or non-existent then you have localize the problem- hall effects sender and ignition amplifier are the usual culprits
